[opensuse] libc segfaults attaching an iPad

I just tried to attach an iPad to my openSUSE 15.0 system, via USB. I think I've done it before, but this time it fails.

[opensuse] Raid, Raid6, what file system for good fault tolerance?
by cagsm 21 Dec '20

21 Dec '20

Hi list, speaking about software raid, not hardware controller based. I am trying to go for some local OpenSuse machine and adding some storage to it. Was considering Raid6, and now reading about a bit and people left and right scaremongering about the larger the disks these days in the double digit terabyte capacities even, the more likely it is that during a reconstruction of a raid subsequent errors would occur. I would absolutely like to keep my data consistent, and I am not thinking about double digit terabytes either, would stick to 2TB or 4TB disks, with Raid6 thats at least 4 physical drives. Now I am wondering if it possible to use a good robust file system that can add some more parity or check blocks or redundancy on top of the hardware disks, to absolutely be able to always read my data. I can't add multiple machines or like those high availability stuff like clusters and what not I read about DRBD (Distributed Replicated Block Device), or maybe I am just too scared by those technical terms or consider myself to be just a simpleton and wanting to keep it rather simple. My use case here is also not constant availablity, when a disk needs to be replaced, so be it, but I don't want to lose my data that I can not ever read certain parts of it again or such stuff. The thing that came to my mind was, if there is some file systems that would add redundancy and robustness onto the mdraid system of the linux kernel? Anyone with some useful insights? Roughly speaking, I was considering some simple pcie esata interfaced controller card and an external case enclosure with esata port and portmulitplier stuff inside, that can present at least 4 physical disks as JBOD, just a bunch of disks, so that the Linux can seem them all separately. Speed and rebuild times are not my concern, but data persistence and data integrity. Not even number of physical disks, I could live with even one of those 8 bay device enclosures and cases that are out there on the market. Thanks for any help and hints. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Help with crontab
by Gustav Degreef 04 Oct '19

04 Oct '19

Hello, I am trying to use festival TTS. It needs to be run as a server. The instructions are to enter in a console " sudo crontab -e" command then to add @restart /usr/bin/festival --server Tha is straightforward, but then I don't know how to proceed from there. I read the man page for crontab and it says that once the commands are specified, you have to exit the editor that is specified (I guess in my system) and then the crontab file becomes active. I have no idea where to proceed after I past the command into the window. I tried typing exit, q and control q, but nothing happens. The menu of the window says to save the output, but when I try that it gives a blank box to type a name to save it to. What is the correct way to finish the task Any help would be appreciated.

[opensuse] Firefox woes
by Dave Howorth 29 Sep '19

29 Sep '19

I just noticed that uBlock Origin has disappeared from my FF toolbar, and no longer turns up in the context menu either. I noticed that it had auto-updated today so I deleted it and reinstalled it, but still have the same symptoms. Anybody else seeing anything similar? I also discovered that FF will no longer access a whole bunch of websites, including e.g. addons.mozilla.org, whilst I can still ping them in a terminal. I use DoH (DNS over HTTPS) so I changed the mode from 3 (only DoH) to 2 (prefer DoH but fall back to regular DNS) and it all magically started working again. I have no idea what's going on there either, and would welcome any shared experience or suggestions about that as well. I'm running FF 60.8.0esr on Leap 15.0 (I haven't updated it for a while so I expect it isn't quite up to date, but at least I know that it wasn't an FF update that caused my problems.) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

there was mouse configuration in systemsettings5 -> input devices -> mouse to adjust the interval considered for double clicking but is no longer there. lately my mouse, logitech thumb track-ball has become quite touchy with click timing and I wanted to try to lengthen/increase the time delay for double click interval to perhaps solve. how may I now adjust that timing. and I have no /etc/X11/xorg.conf and grep -ir mouse /etc/X11/* has no output or blank output tks, -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Problems with DNSMasq
by Anton Aylward 24 Sep '19

24 Sep '19

I'm using DNSmask lcoally. Mostly it is fine. I have a line in /etc/dnsmasq.conf that read # or if you want it to read another file, as well as /etc/hosts, use # this. addn-hosts=/etc/dnsmasq.d/block.hosts.txt The idea is to have lines like 127.0.0.1 addserver.mtv.com in there so that I don't see adverts. In that, it works. But to get some sites, such as HuffPost.ca, to work, I need to allow and advertising site, guce.advertising.com. So first I commented it out of the file, started the line is a hash - "#" just like works /etc/hosts, and restarted DNSMasq. Well it still go pinged to 127.0.0.1. I presumes it was a TTL issue and waited. No it still came back. That was last night. Its still like that this morning. Now I take the like out of the file altogether. Still the problem. In fact all the lines that begin # 127.0.0.1 are like that. The hash to comment them out isn't working. Now I remove that line altogether from /etc/dnsmasq.conf and restart dnsmasq. But still a ping or nslookiup to those addresses comes back as 127.0.0.1 TTL?
